Call For Paper

Overview

TASE is an international symposium that aims to bring together researchers and developers from academia and industry with interest in the theoretical aspects of software engineering. Modern society is increasingly dependent on software systems that are becoming larger and more complex. This poses new challenges to current software engineering methodologies that need to be enhanced using modern results from theoretical computer science. We invite submission of research papers on topics covering all theoretical aspects of software engineering, including those describing applications of theoretical computer science in industrial applications and software engineering methodologies.

The 16th Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering Conference (TASE 2021) will be held in Babes-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Romania on July 8-10, 2022. The proceedings of the TASE 2022 symposium are planned to be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

Authors are invited to submit high quality technical papers describing original and unpublished work in all theoretical aspects of software engineering. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

SUBMISSION and PUBLICATION

Submissions to the conference must not have been published or be concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the conference. The proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Papers should be written in English and should not exceed 16 pages (excluding bibliography) for long papers and 6 pages (excluding bibliography) for short papers in LNCS format. Submissions should be made through the TASE 2022 submission page, handled by the EasyChair conference management system.

https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=tase2022

The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to a special issue in journal Science of Computer Programming (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/science-of-computer-programming).
